I read that Ride & Show Engineering made the mark V trains.
What series did the Canadian company make?
also, why don't they still use Ride & Show Engineering?
also read the mark III's were the base for the mark V's

Hmmm, am confused by your post.

Where did you read that information? Then you jump to a Canadian firm....and how is that connected? Then, why do you think that R&S do not have anything to do about the monorails now?

This page at monorails.org makes it sound like WDI did the designing and Bombardier did the manufacturing.

I believe that is correct. I know some of the pricipals at Monorails.org, and they know their stuff.

The east coast trains are all Bombardier. Same as SunRail, though a slightly different design.

It doesn't surprise me that the DL trains are R&S. It's interesting how much more you have to know about the WDW trains and the system to drive.
